Q: I've had hard lumps just inside my rectum for almost 3 yrs, which seem to be growing and possibly more of them. We don't have health ins. so I didn't get it checked (plus I'm scared)...

(This is part 2 of my original message sent prior to this one and I just noticed I prob. have this in the wrong section/subject area, although I do have an incontinence/urgency problem too!) .....Then today, I saw some blood when I urinated and defalcated and used TP to check and see if it was coming from my rectum or started my period. When I did, I felt lumps in my vagina too(at least right inside) and I don't know how long they've been there, but the blood was from, as I did start my period. I'm wondering if the lumps in my rectum could be cancer and they went through the wall to my vagina and it's spreading. Does this sound like the big "C" word to you? I'm thinking it is. Without Ins., it would cost us everything we have and then some and I know about preexisting conditions if we were to try and get ins. now, if it's not even too late to treat. Thank you for your insight to this matter. Needless to say, I was very worried about the rectum lumps but NOW, alot more so. BTW, I'll be 52yrs. in a cple mos.
